> That is probably why Volkswagen decided to have coasting as the standard setup in the ID.4. Taking the right foot off the accelerator pedal will not trigger any decrease in speed. On the contrary: the vehicle will just sail, which is more efficient than trying to recover energy. Tesla removed the option to adjust how intense regenerative braking is from more recent cars, which makes them brake whenever the driver is not accelerating It should at least warn drivers about that. Otherwise, more people will learn the dangers of one-pedal driving after crashing their EVs
The cynic in me knows they likely did this to ensure they get the maximum range even at the risk of safety.
